Behold the American teenager, a lump in a hoodie who's capable of
little more than playing "Grand Theft Auto," raiding the liquor
cabinet, and denting the minivan, thanks to a brain so unformed that
it's more like a kindergartner's than a grown-up's. That's the message
that seemed to emerge from the past decade's neuroscientific
discoveries: that the brain, once thought to be virtually complete by
age 6, is very much a work in progress during adolescence and notto be
trusted. But experts now are realizing that the popular parental
response—to coddle teens in an attempt to shield them from every harm—
actually may be counterproductive._______________________________________________
